All I got to was

"No index" it says when I tried to search for why s and M-s are bound
to the same thing, at that point... nobody has made an index for that
part of Info.
"s" didn't seem to find much,
Eli> You can do this with "M-x grep".
cd /usr/share/info/
grep -n -e search * /dev/null
dir:201:* Kpathsea: (kpathsea). File lookup along search
paths.
dir:217:* kpsewhich: (kpathsea)Invoking kpsewhich. TeX file searching.
[the rest are .bz ..., as others have mentioned.]
Anyways, why are s and M-s are bound to the same thing in info?
